The best medical writer's claim that the
successful remedy for nasal catarrh must
be non-irritating, easy of application, and
one that will, by its own action, reach ali
the remote sores and liberated surfaces.
The history of the efforts to treat catarrh
during the past few years obliges us to
admit that only one remedy has complete
ly met these conditions, and that is Ely's
Cream Balm. This safe. and pleasant
remedy has mastered catarrh as nothing
else has ever done, and both physicians
and patients freely concede this fact. The
more distressing symptoms quickly yield
to it. 24feb2w
